The parts compromises are Time expedients. I could make another plate, but that would take a bit ov time. Poke one more hole or start from scratch. The photo-flash are a second choice by a mile. They are easy to get and small enough. they're better than a lot of 'lytics. Just not all that compared to a good oiler.

I am putting in a Hammond 157G, the little one from the cheap build I think. I have a 193C and may try cramming it on top. Look at my new linestage, I'm not restricting myself. I also want it done in time for the Bottlehead meet in Maryland in March. Nice exposure with pix and everything.

Douglas
